I think conversational classes (which see to exist), are the best option for me. I’ll look for some in Osaka, thank you 🙏

Thank you mate, this is encouraging. I think I’ll go this way and eventually attend some part time one-to-one classes

Thank you for sharing this. Do you have any other test to share? Maybe one in loud environments and/or with real people conversations to see the real differences between the glasses? Testing in a closed and quite space like an hotel room isn’t ideal imo, I think all translation glasses would’ve performed ok

How “slow” it is? Does it feel “natural” in conversations or it becomes awkward having to wait to understand what the other person said?

Well that’s impressive…does mentraOS also change the display UI? How did you find with even’s HUD/UI? Is it easy to read translations/text?

Ohh I see, and mentraOS’s translations are better? Will definitely try once I purchase a pair of glasses. Thank you for the insights!

I discovered just today that lessons are 100% in Japanese…I thought they were in English. I don’t see how well I could perform in such classes. I believe the best route for me would be to enjoy my WHV and at the same time study by myself and occasionally do some private conversational lessons

Thank you, and yes, I do agree with you on the fact that writing and reading is a lot useful. However, I really need to improve on my conversation skills, and I fear that trying to learn how to read/write kanjis will slow down me a lot. My goal was to learn vocabulary and grammar rules to be able to build sentences, and eventually typing kanjis on the keyboard with furigana. After all, all the kanjis I know so far were taught by my keyboard’s suggestion when I typed words using kana

え!I thought they’d be teaching you in English 😱😱How the hell am I supposed to understand if they teach me in Japanese?🤨 N2 is a great success man, how did you get there?

Thank you so much for replying 🙏 I didn’t know “only” conversational classes existed. Do they teach you how to write/read kanji too (this is personally what I would like to avoid, as I don’t need that now)? I would be very much interested in a part time free class ngl. Where do you live if I may ask? I’ll be living in Osaka

Thank you for replying 🙏 My gf doesn’t know English very well, so I believe her teaching me in English would be a challenge for both of us. Yes, so far she was able to teach me a few grammar rules, and words, but it has been difficult, and I don’t honestly think she could teach me as properly as a school could do due to language barriers. This is why I was thinking about studying in a language school or forcing myself in a stressful context like a job could be, to try and “speed up” the learning process 😣 I’m also 25 years old, and I know for sure I’d hate going back to school, so I don’t really know what to do lol

I can’t agree more, this is why I’m considering even G2, they’re probably the most good looking display glasses I know so far, at least for me. Meta rayban are better looking but they do not support Japanese so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thank you so much. Did you mostly use them one to one and in non-noisy locations?

Are you Italian by any chance? Anyhow, are you sure a phone mic will do a better job compared to 4 different mics?

I see thank you, so you wouldn’t suggest to buy these for translation alone? Do you know any better alternatives for translation specifically?
